If you are a C.J. Box fan, you will be quite surprised at the story line. It is different, quite exciting and will keep you on the edge of your chair. I can not say more without giving some of the plot away. Read it.

A friend recently told me he wanted to start reading David Sedaris, but wasn't sure where to start. As someone who has read every book Sedaris has published, it was a tough call. But "Me Talk Pretty One Day" is probably my all-time favorite and a great one to start with. You'll meet Sedaris' quirky family and enjoy his wonderful stories.

Devin Jones is a college student in 1973. For that summer, he worked at a small amusement park located in S.Carolina. He was trying to get over a broken heart and learning a new way of talking, carny.

He also finds out that a horrible murder took place on one of the rides. Horror House is considered haunted by the ghost of the young woman who was brutally murdered and left there. The killer has never been found.

Stephen King is a master in storytelling. A great book of coming of age and confronting evil.

Scottoline has done her research on the lives of soldiers who are in a war zone and the family they leave behind. The story is well written and touches the heart. It is a story of reality that should appeal to both men and women.

Actress, Dona Papalardo, is hounded by the press every since she underwent gastric bypass surgery to get rid of her unwanted weight. After Dona's assistant is shot, Savannah Reid is called in to be her bodyguard. Since the assistant was wearing Dona's fur coat and getting in her car, the police believe that Dona was the target.

Soon Dona's gardener is shot while she is standing next to him and Savannah is determined to find the shooter before he can kill Dona. This is another Savannah Reid mystery and its a good one. I enjoyed it.
